Disney now planning live-action The Sword In The Stone remake

Disney have added The Sword In The Stone to the list of planned live-action adaptations of their animated classics.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Bryan Cogman, the writer responsible for seven episodes of Game Of Thrones, including the controversial "Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken' in the show's most recent series, has been commissioned to write the screenplay for the new adaptation.

Cogman, who is currently working on a movie adaptation of the hugely popular card game Magic: The Gathering, will rework the 1963 animation into a new live-action blockbuster.
